Tutor Bio

Guten Tag & Buenos dias from Los Angeles! I am a trilingual language & dialect coach for private students, actors, writers, producers & directors.
My clients include Al Pacino, Colin Farrell, Priyanka Chopra, The Russo Brothers and many other A-Listers.
I have native fluency in Spanish, German & English incl. many combinations of dialects & accents. I'm also a localization specialist for Film, Television, IP, Multimedia & Technology platforms with over 20 years experience.
I was born in Düsseldorf, Germany. Due to my dad's international work I had the great fortune to grow up with 3 languages from an early age. After primary school in Germany, we moved abroad and I attended Colegio Humboldt in Mexico City and later Colegio Goethe in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Growing up a German Latino was a fantastic experience.
I specialize in a real creative approach when teaching a language. Conversation and interaction make us connect with a language, the people, and their culture, more so than purely studying grammar books. Just as I learned early on, once you think in a new language do you become connected with it.
I look forward to helping you become one with a new language and feel like you're becoming a local.

Based in Studio City, California

Personally Vetted · Strømmen’s Note

Trilingual since age seven and raised between Mexico City and Düsseldorf, Klaus coaches Spanish and German dialects the way he learned them: by talking.

    I did a sample lesson with Klaus D; it was great. Klaus D balanced speaking practice and explanation really well. I’d happily recommend Klaus D to new students.
